I would like more information about the activities that will be available this memorial weekend? How much is canoeing and horse back riding?
Brian, there are over 12 miles of hiking trails at Robbers Cave State Park, but you can mix-and-match to make shorter or longer hikes depending on your preference. Happy hiking and thank you for using TravelOK.com!
How many miles of hiking trails are available in the park?
VJ, we do make advance reservations for RV campsites. You can call our Park Office at 918-465-2565 to inquire about reservations.
VJ, unfortunately there is no way to reserve a tent or RV campsites in Oklahoma's state parks. We are working to get a reservation system in place for campsites, but until then all 175 campsites at Robbers Cave State Park are available on a first come, first serve basis only. If you'd like, give the park staff a call at 918-465-2565 and they'll be able to give you an idea of how many spots are available. Happy camping and thank you for using TravelOK.com!
Looks like the online booking does not include camping. Do you take advance booking for camp sites.
Jenny, our online booking site is not showing any availability, but if you'll call the Robbers Cave State Park staff at 918-465-2565 or 800-654-8240 they will be able to give you the most up-to-date information. Have a great trip and thank you for using TravelOK.com!

Just wondering if you have a cabin available for this Saturday May 4th? There are 2 Adults and 2 kids.
why do you people not post camping details? Why is it such a big secret?!?!?!?
I have lived in Oklahoma for 16 years and have never been here but im supposed to be going on may 10th but I hope I have some fun.
Dustin, your best bet would be to contact Robbers Cave State Park staff directly at 918-465-2565. They will have the most up-to-date reservation information and check-in times. The area is very beautiful and we're sure you'll enjoy it! Best wishes and thank you for using TravelOK.com!
Hi, I'm hoping to plan a trip for this upcoming weekend, I was wondering how far out a cabin reservation must be made, as well as what the latest time for check-in would be on a Sunday evening? Thanks in advance.
send info please
Corbin, please give Robbers Cave State Park a call directly at 918-465-2565, and they will be able to answer your questions. Best wishes and thank you for using TravelOK.com!
I am with a BSA troop in the OKC area I am wondering of you have a diffident pricing for BSA troop for camping with tents. If you could get back with me that would be great.
Jan, the cabins at Robbers Cave State Park are located about one mile from Lake Carlton. Within the park, you would be walking on winding, tree-lined roads and outside of the park you would need to cross Highway 2 to get to the lake. If you have any questions, please don't hesitate to call 918-465-2565. Best wishes and thank you for using TravelOK.com!
Are the cabins at Robbers Cave near the water?
Doug, each cabin has its own charcoal grill and firepit. For more information, please call 918-465-2565. Best wishes and thank you for using TravelOK.com!
I have a question. What kind of outdoor cooking is there at your cabins? Charcoal pit? Thanks.
Doris, the 'Book Now' link will show you what is available during a certain time span. If it isn't showing any cabins, it means that they are all booked. If you have any questions, please contact Robbers Cave State Park directly at 918-465-2565. Best wishes and thank you for using TravelOK.com!
Is there a trick to cabin reservations? The Book Now link will only show lodge availability. Even if you go to the travelok.com/parks and click on Robbers Cave Cabins it doesn't allow you to see or choose cabins.
Zach, while efforts are made to ensure that the trails are well-marked, you may encounter some areas that are missing markers and other markers that have been worn down over time. Your best bet would be to contact state park staff directly by emailing robberscave@travelok.com or calling 918-465-2565 and getting the most up-to-date information about trail maintenance. We do also have a listing for the trail system, which includes GPS coordinates. You can see that information by clicking the link under 'related listings' above. Best wishes and thank you for using TravelOK.com!
Are the hiking trails well marked? Im looking to get some trail running in and dont want to get lost. Im specifically looking at the longer hiking trail of them, that starts at the lower end of the park.
Debra, thank you very much for your very nice comment. We're glad you had such a great time. Best wishes and thank you for using TravelOK.com!
Our family stayed at Robber's Cave this past April. What a blessing it was! We drove from South Texas and Southeast Nebraska...it's just about halfway, each way for all 10 of us! Our family included the oldest,84 and 83 years old, to the youngest, 7 years old. EVERYONE had a fabulous time! The cabins were comfortable and very accommadating! They were clean and very well stocked for almost any need! The linens and towel service was exceptional. We threw all used towels and sheets into a plastic tub, provided by the park and set them at the end of the drive. By that evening we had fresh towels and sheets! Thats a big plus for me! We stayed in the duplex cabins! What a great way to have your own space and still be connected to the family! The park, itself, is beautifu! We took long walks, checked out the caves and spent hours just enjoying the beauty of it all. The views were spectacular! Who new Oklahoma had such a great get away place?!?! We do now and we will be returning this year! Only this time we're bringing MORE family and friends! By the way, we also had 2 small dogs with us! It's so nice to be able to take the WHOLE family on vacation!
Stephanie, unfortunately we do know of anywhere near Wilburton that rents climbing equipment, but the Robbers Cave State Park staff may know. You can reach them directly at 918-465-2565. Have a great trip and thank you for using TravelOK.com!
Is there anywhere to rent climbing/rappel equitment? We are planning a trip in march to celebrate my recovery from major knee surgery. It'll be my first time back on the rocks since my injury.
Kristin, canoe and paddle boat rentals are provided by concessionaires at Robbers Cave State Park. They do not have a website, but if you call the park staff at 918-465-2565 they will be able to help you. Also, to our knowledge, there are no horseback riding stables nearby, but if you have your own horse there are plenty of places to ride in the Robbers Cave State Park Trail System. Best wishes and thank you for using TravelOK.com!
We are planning on tent camping there in March 2013 but would like more info on the horseback riding and any canoeing or paddle boating amenities. thank you!
I have been coming to RCSP several times a year for the past several years. People who are complaining about ticks and snakes- you are in nature. You are in the woods, hiking, during high season- and you think the staff are to blame for ticks and snakes in the woods? Get real! The park, cabins, trails, and staff are all wonderfully managed, courteous and helpful. If you are bothered by ticks and snakes, suggest you find some deet, common sense, or another hobby!
Wendy, canoe and paddle boat rentals are provided by concessionaires at Robbers Cave State Park. They do not have a website, but if you call the park staff at 918-465-2565 they will be able to help you. Best wishes and thank you for using TravelOK.com!
I'm trying to find out more information on the canoe & paddle boat rentals. Can you direct me to that website?
Justin, activities like fishing, hiking and rappelling are available all year, but for specific naturalist programs and information on concessionaires like the mini golf course, you'd need to speak to Robbers Cave State Park staff at 918-465-2565. Best wishes and thank you for using TravelOK.com!
I am going the 2nd week in Feb. It is an anniversary gift, what could my wife and i do?

What types of activities are available during the winter months Jan-Mar?
Andrea, according to park staff there are no changes in campground fees. In the summer, cabin rates range from $73-$108, and in the winter cabin rates range from $53-$88. If you have any questions, please contact Robbers Cave State Park directly at 918-465-2565. Best wishes and thank you for using TravelOK.com!
What are the price differences in winter and summer rates?
The park is beautiful, the staff outstanding, will be returning soon. Had family reunion there this past weekend with some of the family camping for 3 days. The kids enjoyed the paddle boats. The nature trail was enjoyed by the younger adults and kiddos. Scenery was so beautiful.
Steve, please call 918-465-2565 for cabin rentals, or click the green 'Book Now' button above to book a lodge room. Best wishes and thank you for using TravelOK.com!
Do you have any Cabins left or rooms in the Lodge?
Very bad experiance, all of our friends had made reservations and my wife and I had called and left messages for two weeks with no return call. Finally got ahold of someone and now they have no sites left. I would recommend many other equestrian camping areas to everyone in and aroun Oklahoma !!!!!!!
Dave, firepits are available, but campfires are not allowed since the entire state is currently under a burn ban. Please check our state parks page before your trip for updates to the burn ban. Beer is allowed in the park, but only if it is 3.2% alcohol content or lower. Enjoy your visit to Robbers Cave State Park and thank you for using TravelOK.com!
Are there firepits available? Also, are you allowed to drink beer?
I apologize, I sent that before I looked through the other comments. I found the pdf files to the right with the pertinent info. Thanks!
I was wondering if there were any remaining tent sites available during the fall festival weekend? If so, what is the cost for a tent site? Thank you, Jessica

Do you have trail rides for those of us who have our own horses? thanks
My family just got back yesterday we stayed in a cabin for three days and it was wonderful very clean and stocked with everything we needed minus our food. The swimming pool and the swimming area at lake Carlton were great, along with the paddle boats. The staff was amazing they were very inviting and so helpful with every question we had. Our favorite was the nature center the woman who runs it was so nice to my children and spent more time with us then she had to answering questions and sharing stories she was very knowledgeable about the park its history and the wildlife of the area. My wife and I loved it and made great memories with our children definitely recommend going.
Went there last weekend with my 10 yr old son. we stayed in a cabin and it was wonderful. The park, like the cabin was clean and well kept. The staff was very friendly and helpful. The trails were well marked and nicely maintained. An all-round great expierience.
I live in North Texas and my 2 kids and I stayed at one of the cabins for the first time a few weeks ago. We all had a wonderful time! The cabins were great and came equipped with everything but the food. The staff was very helpful and friendly. We look forward to our next trip back.
Robbers Cave State Park is wonderful. I live in Southwestern Oklahoma but we get back here every chance we get. I grew up here and I tell everyone that if they want to see the best of Oklahoma to come here.

i'M REALLY LOOKING TO STAY HERE SOON, BUT i SEE NO VIEWS OF THE CABINS, INSIDE OR OUT. disappointed.
Kent, thank you for your comment. On most state park listing, we have red links for downloadable PDF files including maps in the top right corner of the page. You might also enjoy the interactive map found here www.travelok.com/maps/view.parks since you're new again to the state. Just find a park location that interests you and when you click the tiny pine tree, it will lead you to the park's page for more information. We really appreciate your feedback, welcome you home to Oklahoma and appreciate you using TravelOK.com.
a online map of the cap sites would be very helpful. We just moved back to OK. from TX. While I do not care much for tX, their state park website had downloadable PDF of all campsites in the state park system. It was very helpful.
We visited Robbers cave over the weekend for the first time and had a wonderful time. My kids loved rock climbing, hiking and fishing. We are already trying to plan a trip back for a longer stay.
We really enjoyed our stay at group camp 2. Everything was clean and nice. The bathrooms by the kitchen only has one hand dryer, that only works twice, then stops working. It would be nice to have more than one hand dryer in there. over all it is a very nice place to stay. The kitchen was very nice too. remember to bring you own kitchen towels and pot holders!!
Kim, thank you for your question. We would suggest you give the park a call at their toll-free number above, send them an email using the link above or use the the booking web site link above so that you can find out what will be available at the time you're wanting to visit Robbers Cave. Have a great visit to the park and thank you for using TravelOK.com.
Is there any 3 bdrm cabins directly by water or any cabins together by water?
This is a perfect family stuff to do..
Pam, thank you for your feedback and we heard you! Through Capital Improvement funding, appropriate steps were taken to resolve this issue. The old mattresses and box springs have been replaced in all of the lodge rooms, so a comfortable night's stay can be enjoyed by anyone staying in a cabin or a lodge room. We look forward to seeing you again very soon.
My daughter and I stayed at Belle Starr Lodge over the Fall Festival weekend this year and overall, had a wonderful time. My only complaint is the beds in the lodge were terrible!! My husband and I stayed in one of the cabins for a few days last year and it was much more comfortable than my lodge experience. Robbers cave is a wonderful place to visit, the staff are friendly and helpful, the cabins are clean and comfortable...but the accomodations in the lodge need some work. Will this keep me from coming back to Robbers Cave? No, but I won't stay at the lodge again.
Chris, camping spots in the state parks are first come, first served. When you arrive at the park, please visit the park office to pay for your stay. For more information, please refer to our State Park FAQs link in the upper right hand corner of this page. Robbers Cave State Park is ideal for hiking and the fall foliage is really starting to turn this time of year. Enjoy your visit and thank you for using TravelOK.com.
So uh are there places to set up a tent and just camp or do we have to reserve a spot/sign papers? We're coming up there for an adventure..so we would love to be able to find a spot, set up camp and move on.. Plus, we're super pumped to hike and see what else is out there..
Nicholas, please review the ADA Accessibility document and park map in the upper right hand corner of this page. If you need more information, please contact the park directly and they would be happy to assist you. Enjoy your visit to Robbers Cave State Park and thank you for using TravelOK.com.

Growing up, my grandfather told me all about his trips to Robber's Cave as a teen. A few friends and I decided to come up in early August this year for a hiking trip. We stayed in a cabin there at the park, and aside from us locking our keys in our cabin, the cabin was spectacular. The staff at the park were very helpful also. It's definitely one of the best experiences and best parks I've been to. The only downfall I saw with the park were the hiking trails. They weren't well marked, but in the end that's what makes hiking so fun! you get lost, you eventually find your way back on the path, and end up getting to see some of the most beautiful things God has put on this earth. Thanks so much RC! I'll be seeing you again in October and I'll be bringing many more along!
I'm not sure if every cabin is different but we've rented a 2 bedroom and a 1 bedroom in the last couple years we've gone to Robber's cave and both cabins were VERY well kept. There are 5 in our family and NONE of us has been bit by a tick or any other bug. When we go to Robber's Cave we do a LOT of rock climbing and rappelling and we enjoy MILES of hiking...we have YET to come across a snake, venomous or not! The bathrooms are a little smelly at times but I've never run across some that are gross. Someone mentioned bathrooms being a long walk, they are not unusually far. The primary activity at Robber's Cave is hiking so I wouldn't expect them to have a bathroom on every corner of the park. Oh, the nature center isn't huge but they have some fun animals to watch and FABULOUS staff. They will be renovating too, from what they told us on our last visit this past August. Overall, this is a BEAUTIFUL park with a lot to offer!
I took my eight year old son camping this weekend, and we had a wonderful time. We stayed in the primitive area by the cave. He had a great time swimming at the pool, and we will be back.
I've been going to Robber's Cave State Park for about 20 years. Here's the rundown. THE GOOD, We stayed in a cabin this year, and we loved it. The cabin was very clean, comfortable, and spacious. And I think it was only a little more expensive than the area motels. THE BAD, Do not stay in the tent camping area. You will be sorry. It is like sleeping on a sloping pile of rocks. The only security light in the area has been out for about 15 years, which I complain about every year. The only level spot in the area is in full sun, away from the camp sites. There are a few skunks hanging around for the trash, and there were buzzards this year, but I've never seen a snake, tick, or mosquito. THE UGLY, The bathrooms are horrible. They have really gone downhill the last few years. They are nasty.
Tony, Robbers Cave State Park is a wonderful place for an Oklahoma getaway! Please refer to the booking website link above and you can see the different room and cabin options available right inside the park. You can make online reservations there too. Have a great time at the park and thank you for using TravelOK.com.
Ive never been here before but I've heard about it from so many people. I need some recommendations on hotels, please! it would also help if ratings and prices were included also. Thanks !
We just returned from our first trip to the park and it was amazing!!! We stayed in the cabins and it was very clean and comfortable! We are planning our next trip in October!!!!!
My family and I just got back from there this week. Still amazing place to visit even after 30 years ago being there with my family. It sure is nice to experience it all over again with my wife and children. The park staff was wonderful hope to come back in the fall.
My family and I just got home from Robber's Cave State Park and enjoyed it very much! I can't say enough wonderful things about the place. It was absolutely beautiful. We will be back!
The staff at Robbers Cave State Park work very hard to provide quality facilities for our park’s cabin and camping guests. Our staff clean the campground restrooms a minimum of two times each day (morning and afternoon). There may be occasions when some guests leave a mess in a campground comfort station. As soon as we are aware of such conditions, we work hard to promptly respond to this situation and clean-up the facility.rn rnWith regard to ticks and copperheads, this summer season is no different than previous years. While ticks and snakes are part of this park’s forest environment, they are not in greater numbers this summer than as observed in previous years. We always encourage guests to use insect repellant when hiking or walking thru the forest on a nature trail. As well, we always remind visitors to watch where they step when hiking. Snakes are occasionally seen in the park; in most cases, snakes try to stay away from people. Snakes are most active during the late evening and at night, so use a flashlight when walking at night.
We were planning on camping there this weekend but after reading this last comment about ticks and copper heads Im kinda iffy on it now I have small children is it still this bad I havent been there in 2 years?
I have been going to Robbers Cave state park for about 5 years now and its just gone down hill with all the unkept cabins and restrooms the showers are disgusting and the campgrounds are not well kept at all and you have to walk forever to get to a restroom and the TICKS!!!!! and copper heads!!!! i dont want my kids getting bit are ridiculas and im not the type to complain but i just had to let people know.
We camp there waaaayyyyyy to much and its because it is so beautiful and the staff is out of this world - everything there is so grand, peaceful, fun and relaxing. We love the walking sites. Too much fun for so many people. This is a grand place for families.
Sue, thanks for the heads up!
There is no restaurant on site.
Beautiful park, WONDERFUL staff!! We were there this weekend and the park wasn't very crowded. They have LOTS of events for the kids, both educational and fun. The park is a MUST see and do.
We bring the family here every year. It is a great place for a family vacation. See you in May.
atop the massive rock formations is the best view i have seen in years, compares to arkansas scenic views, love to hike here. there is alot of people who visit so be prepared for lots of people and bikers.
I absolutely 1000 % think that this is the most beautiful park on the face of the earth. Just the way God intended we see our world. Thank you for keeping my youth church camp beautiful so I can share my memories with my children.
